In troubled times, the daughter-in-law returns

Chapter 24
In fact, Mu Xue already knew that Sikong Ye was coming, but she didn't expect that he would suddenly jump over to practice against her, but she also became a little interested. The most taboo thing in martial arts is to work behind closed doors. It is very rare for someone who is evenly matched, or even slightly higher than yourself, to give him a move.

When she was in Death City before, she rarely got such an opportunity, and her improvement came from actual combat.

The way to train killers in Dead City is simple and brutal. Want to become stronger?Very simple, go kill!
The tasks you take over will also gradually increase in difficulty. Sometimes even the defense force around the target to be assassinated exceeds the ability of the killer himself. To complete the task, you must not only have superb martial arts, but also have superior wisdom.

Because she was escorted by Huo Liangzhi in the past, in fact, Mu Xue seldom received tasks that really required her to do her best, so her No. 13 title in the city of death was somewhat unrealistic.

However, once she succeeds in revenge, if she wants to start a new life, she will abandon the city of death, and will live under the shadow of the city's lore order. More self-protection abilities are imminent. Better than nothing.

After practicing against Sikong Ye last time, she knew that if Sikong Ye came to feed her moves, her progress could not be described as "a thousand miles a day".

Mu Xue became excited, and the movements of her hands became more like flowing water.

There was a smile on the corner of Sikong Ye's mouth, this was the first woman who dared to practice duel with him.

After the last trial, he knew that although this woman's martial arts is not perfect, she has a strong learning ability and is extremely quick to respond. Logically speaking, such aptitude and hard work should have reached the first-class level. Why is she just staying here now? What about at the pinnacle of the second rate?

Could it be that she missed the best learning period?

It has to be said that Sikong Ye's guess was very accurate. If it wasn't for Mu Xue's reckless practice and missions in the city of death, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to achieve what she is today.

Although she has good qualifications, she is also diligent and studious, but her early years were turbulent and wandering, and so many good years were wasted.

However, she has always believed that hard work can make up for weakness, so she has never given up over the years. If Huo Liangzhi didn't allow it, she would definitely challenge the killers who ranked ahead of her in the city of death.

The two of you come and go, the shadow of the sword fluttering, in the soft moonlight like gauze, the man is handsome and the woman is glamorous, just like a pair of lovers.

Sikong Ye was keenly aware that Mu Xue had improved a lot compared to last time, and some moves were even used by him last time, but his style was a bit more aggressive, and Mu Xue changed a little to suit her better. I am also more flexible.

Sikong Ye was greatly impressed, at this speed, Mu Xue would definitely become a first-class master in at most three years.It's just that she is still lacking in internal strength. If she can get advice from an expert, the possibility of success will be greater.

Therefore, there was a trace of love for talent in his heart.

The two of you fought back and forth for more than half an hour, and Mu Xue gradually couldn't take it anymore, because before Sikong Ye came, she had already practiced for an hour, and it wasn't a life-and-death fight, so there was no need to continue the fight.

She had benefited a lot from this competition, and she had to calm down and ponder it carefully, so she was the first to call for a stop.

Sikong Ye floated back, his face didn't change when he was angry, he put the long sword back into its sheath freely and freely, and with a casual throw, the long sword fell back to its original position on the weapon rack.

Mu Xue stopped her posture and stood still, raised her hand to brush her sweat-drenched temple hair, but her heart was very happy, her eyes rolled, and she said in a calm voice: "Today, the young city master is in a good mood."

Sikong Ye stood in the yard with his hands behind his back, and asked, "How is the situation over there?"

"It's almost there," Mu Xue calmed down, "I've drawn up three plans, Shaocheng, why don't you take a look at them?"

Sikong Ye held out his hand to her, "Bring it."

Mu Xue walked to the weapon rack, put down her long sword, and said unhurriedly, "I was sweating just now, and I need to take a shower and change clothes before I can discuss other things with the young city lord. I wonder if the young city lord has the patience?"

Sikong Ye raised his eyebrows, "Are you inviting me?"

Mu Xue shrugged, "People outside say I'm a vixen, so I have to show off my vixen's abilities, right?"

Sikong Ye raised his eyebrows slightly, "You still care about those rumors outside?" He thought she didn't care about anything.

"Why don't I care?" Mu Xue's face was very calm, but there was a bit of desolation in the calm, "I didn't jump out of the cracks in the rocks, it's fine for those people to insult me, if I hurt the ancestors, How can I be indifferent?"

It seems that someone is fueling the incident outside, and now the rumors are intensifying. Originally, there was only one truth, but it was magnified a hundred times. Yang essence will also lead to chaos in the world.

If it is not controlled, there is no telling when the people of Ye City will ask the City Lord's Mansion to burn Mu Xue to death!
As for the person behind the scenes, the most suspected person is Zhan Tiannan, but it may also be a member of the Sikong family.

Mu Xue lifted her foot up the steps, took only two steps, then stopped suddenly, turned around and smiled at Sikong Ye, "If you only look at the surface, the Young City Lord is really a person of low character! For her rightful fiancee However, the young city lord was able to watch her being bullied by the outside room, and even fell ill.

"When your fiancée needs you the most, you are either busy with the so-called official duties, or hang out with vixen, you are really hard-hearted.

"On the other hand, for the woman I like—well, if I don't like it, I won't be in the golden house, but I like it so much that I can ignore my fiancée, but I just watched her being slandered and ignored... Tut tut..."

Before she finished speaking, she turned and went in.

After listening to her quietly, Sikong Ye suddenly twitched the corners of his lips, "If you say that, can I think that in your heart, I am already very important?"

Mu Xue frowned and turned around, "I have only one word to give you about the young city master's knowledge—" She opened her red lips, and said one word clearly: "Bah!"

Sikong Ye's expression gradually changed from astonishment to calmness, and then he burst into laughter.

fun, fun!This is the first time he has encountered such an interesting thing in his life!

Mu Xue was always able to constantly change his opinion of her.

All the servants of Jinxiudui showed terrified expressions. The young city lord was young and old, and he never smiled. Even those who watched him grow up among them had never seen him laugh so indulgently!
